The Other Iraq

This is the Iraq that you don’t see on CNN and definitely not FOX. Or any other U.S. based news for that matter.
It’s an 10 minute video. It’s beautiful, sad, inspiring, fragile, humble.
You should watch it.

The Powers That Be

I’m currently reading Walter Wink’s The Powers That Be. This book is absolutely blowing my mind. It is so intriguing how he is taking the text and reading it with a social/political lens as well as the spiritual. You’ll probably see me posting a whole lot of stuff of his over the next month.

Red Cowboy Designs

Ok. I know I’ve said this about a thousand times before. But this time I mean it. I’ve finally updated my portfolio and gotten my site all straightened out. Thanks to the help of Tank.

Insanity

Are you kidding me?
Scientist just discovered some more stuff we never knew about. Basically Antarctic ice melt is opening up ocean that we’ve never had access too (I hate to admit old Gore might be right). So some a Life Aquatic team went down to film some stuff.
And if you go to CNN’s main page [...]

Corporate Responsibility Mondays

Last week I introduced a new little running thread. Basically trying to highlight some corporations that we may or may not take for granted. I know for me, for the longest time, I never really thought about where my money was going or what it was supporting. Recently, I’ve been attempting to at least become [...]

Search Engine Optimization

Can anybody help me with search engine optimization for Red Cowboy? I’d just like to get it to pop up more in local searches on google. For example, “Atlanta + design”, “Buford + design”. Anybody got any knowledge they can share?

A Few Random Things

1) Did you know President Palmer was also Pedro Cerano in Major Leagues? Two of the more polar opposite roles out there. Thanks to Tank for pointing it out.
2) I’m not attempting to make fun of anyone . . . but if I was . . . you should check out this pastor who tried [...]

Why I Belive Non-Violence Is A Better Way

This is a great article. It’s called “Five Questions Your Pacifists Friends Are Tired Of Answering“. It says things better than I could. If you really want to understand where some of us are coming from, then this might explain it. (ht: Dave)
